And the cause of heart failure everywhere
- rafram 1y agoPalm kernel oil, yes. Palm oil, no. Both come from the palm fruit and are frequently confused for one another.
- xeromal 1y agoThanks for the info! I assume the kernel is just the seed inside?
- rafram 1y agoYes: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_kernel https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_kernel
- ricardobeat 1y agoI’ve never seen palm kernel oil listed as a food ingredient. It seems to be most commonly used in cosmetics. This is a mix up on why certain oils are on the current “oils to avoid” list. Palm oil gets a bad reputation mainly because of environmental issues with how it's grown, not because it's unhealthy. But all these concerns get lumped together in the “bad oils” list.
